Logitech MediaPlay Cordless Mouse USB Linux driver is a driver for the USB Logitech MediaPlay mice.

The main purpose of this page is to share my experiences with Logitech MediaPlay Cordless Mouse. Here you will find all the necessary information to put your MediaPlay mouse fully operational.

When i bought this mouse, the first thing that crossed my mind was the incompatibility between all this multimedia buttons and Linux. After googling about it, I noticed there was no useful information regarding this mouse, so I decided to put myself at work.

Did my reseach, and after a few hours browsing kernel source files, reading some usb documentation, code changes, I was able to make the bit map for MediaPlay multimedia keys.

The next step was to change usbmouse.c by Vojtech Pavlik allowing it to get and export mouse extra keys as keyboard entries using kernel input core support.

Requirements:
Linux Kernel source >= 2.4.18
GCC >= 2.95
GNU Make >= 3.75
